“We are on track to getting something to the president to sign in December,” Mnuchin said during an exclusive interview on FOX Business’ “The Intelligence Report.” “There are some minor differences between the bills, but we are very pleased with the process and how it’s moving forward.”

Senate Republicans unveiled their tax proposal Thursday. It includes seven tax brackets and differs from the House’s tax plan on individual rates and its decision to phase in a corporate rate cut.

“Both the House and the Senate have the same exact objective, which is to get middle income tax cuts,” Mnuchin said. “That’s what this is all about. So, we’ll reconcile the differences. As I said, I am very comfortable that we have the same objectives.”
